À propos de cet audio
Lando Norris is finding himself under intense pressure as the 2025 Formula 1 season reaches its climax, currently sitting second in the drivers championship behind his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri by 22 points. The British driver occupies a fascinating position - his team has already secured the constructors championship with six races remaining, but the individual glory remains tantalizingly out of reach.
The Singapore Grand Prix on October 5th proved particularly dramatic for Norris. After qualifying a disappointing fifth, he told Sky Sports that the tables have turned on McLaren, admitting the car wasn't quick enough and that understeer was his worst nightmare. However, his racing instincts kicked in spectacularly at the start, as he surged from fifth to third position in an aggressive opening lap that saw him make contact with both Piastri and Max Verstappen. The move raised eyebrows throughout the paddock, with Formula 1 TV analyst Jolyon Palmer breaking down the incident in detail, noting how Norris broke his front wing end plate in the process but still managed to secure third place.
According to Sports Illustrated, mental and medical coach Riccardo Ceccarelli from Formula Medicine believes Norris is being pushed out of his comfort zone in ways that could lead to mistakes. Ceccarelli, who has been involved in Formula 1 since 1989, told Motorsport Italia that aggressive driving isn't in Norris's nature, and he's now seeing a driver willing to step beyond his usual boundaries. The coach even suggested that Norris might risk errors that could ruin his own race or Piastri's, a stark change from earlier in the season.
The Singapore result marked Norris's 40th career podium, making him only the 25th driver in Formula 1 history to reach that milestone. Despite the pressure, he continues to chip away at Piastri's lead, needing to make up an average of 3.7 points per race across the remaining six rounds to capture his first world championship.
